Chapter 230: A Little Bitter Gourd

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation               Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Lin picked up a cherry. She loved small fruits with lots of juice and a sweet and sour taste. She took a bite and felt the juice burst in her mouth. It was a blissful feeling.

She chewed the fruit and leaned back in her chair, closing her eyes comfortably and looking like a cat sunbathing.

It was rare for Yan Ruo to see her reveal such a harmless and cute appearance, and he felt as if a soft spot in his heart had been struck.

After Zheng You lost the script, she could no longer relax. She pushed away the newly peeled orange that Jing Shan handed her, stood up, and said loudly, “This is probably limewater. As long as excessive carbon dioxide is injected into the water, it’ll be clear again.”

As she spoke, she picked up the straw on the table and added, “This straw must be for us to blow carbon dioxide into the water. As long as we work together and blow into the teapot, we can definitely complete this mission!”

Jing Shan immediately stood up and agreed. Ye Xing wanted to maintain her gentle and obedient persona, so she became the peacemaker again. “Then let’s try it out together quickly. I know about this chemistry experiment too. It’s feasible.”

Unexpectedly, Zheng You thought that Ye Xing was trying to get on her good side.

Ye Xing came from an ordinary family, and she did not get to where she was today solely through flattery. Half of it was due to her own efforts.

At first, she did want to ride on Zheng You, but she gradually found that Bai Lin, who was on the opposite side of Zheng You, was someone she could not afford to offend even more, so she gave up on this idea.

Ye Xing felt uncomfortable being currently sized up by Zheng You with a slightly contemptuous gaze.

Bai Lin did not partic.i.p.ate at all. She sat alone on the chair and placed cherry after cherry into her mouth. The juice stained her lips red and added a bit of color to her bare face, making her look even more exquisite and beautiful.

Shortly, the topic of Bai Lin eating cherries made it to the top of Weibo’s search list.

Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang seemed to be competing with each other. One was peeling an orange for Bai Lin, while another was peeling a banana for her.

Zhou Guang was still resenting Yan Ruo for letting Bai Lin take the risk alone just now, so he did not give Yan Ruo a good att.i.tude. He even fought to hand the banana to Bai Lin, almost feeding it to her.

As Bai Lin ate the banana, it mixed with the other fruits in her mouth and instantly became a strange taste. Bai Lin’s charming and lovely expression immediately soured as she crinkled her face like a little bitter gourd.

[Zhou-ge doted on his sister the wrong way. No one would want to try eating oranges and bananas together.]

[Lin-jie’s change of expression is so cute!]

[Everyone else is working hard to complete the quest, but she’s just sitting there? Cute? I hope you can meet such ‘cute’ colleagues when you’re busy with work!]

[Are you blind up there? Can’t you see how much Lin-jie’s already done? Besides, Zheng You and the others didn’t make any progress at all.]

Zheng You was starting to lose her patience.

She was not a good leader or commander, and she did not actually know how to coordinate and divide work. Since she was young, others had to do whatever she asked them to do.

It was just a small action of blowing air into the teapot, but everyone still failed to do it together after several minutes.

Li Xuan accidentally sucked some water into his mouth when he blew into it, so he went to gargle with the mineral water in his bag.

Without a strong man with a large lung capacity, it was even more difficult for them to inject enough carbon dioxide into the water.

In addition, the action of them blowing air into the water was not consistent at all. Not only was the efficiency low, they kept blowing air out, making Zheng You and Ye Xing, the two weak girls, feel a little lightheaded.

“It’s useless for you to do this.” Bai Lin spat out the unpalatable mixture of banana and orange in her mouth and said in Zheng You’s direction.

“Miss Bai, what do you mean? If you’re not willing to cooperate, then please don’t make such sarcastic remarks!” Zheng You threw the straw to the ground. She could not accept Bai Lin lecturing her as if she knew everything.

When Jing Shan heard this, he immediately put on the air of a bodyguard and said, “Bai Lin, Youyou’s put in so much effort and ideas to complete the mission. If you only know how to eat fruits, I suggest that you don’t point your finger at Youyou!’

Zheng You bit her lower lip and looked at Yan Ruo. “Yan-gege, you can swim, so your lung capacity is much better than ours. Can you help us?

Zheng You thought that Yan Ruo would do the quest well and would not ignore her in this situation, but Yan Ruo only raised his eyes and glanced at her.

Bai Lin grabbed a tissue and gently wiped the juice off her fingers.. She said slowly, “This? I can handle it alone, why’d I need to trouble others?”
